EVGA Z170 Classified is beast, board have everything even PLX 8747, chipset provide 20 lanes Gen 3.
You can use 16 lanes from processor for SLI mode and use Sound Card, 2x Intel 750 SSD.
Internal USB 3.1, SATA Express, M.2... high end motherboard. For literally perfect platform miss only 2 things and that's not EVGAs fault.
One thing is flux solder and 2 more cores on Processor. That would be perfect platform, but with this speed per core as Skylake and powerful IMC.
People cry for more lanes even with improved chipset Z170, maybe is Z170 Classy solution with PLX Bridge.
I looked and perfect memory for Z170 Classy and my opinion is GSkill Trident Z 3000MHz. GSkill say Trident Z kits are QVL for Stinger and FTW...
They work same probably and on Classy. It's better if customer choose 2x8 or 2x16 kits (both are available) as Trident Z 3000 and small 2x4GB.
You can read specification for Intel 750 SSD and Samsung SM951 they are similar and very fast.
